LOSE ME is a track from our upcoming collection of songs BROTHERHOOD, all about masculine initiation and entering manhood. Group sex is not necessarily a part of initiation into manhood, but for men who have sex with men, it can be a profound healing experience. The music video for LOSE ME is a sequel to DEGENERATE. Where DEGENERATE portrayed a highly stylized cum dump ritual, LOSE ME is more sensual, gentle and more loving. There’s still rough sexual moments in the video, but the overall theme is that of tenderness and helping a man know and understand his body.

There’s a weird strain of gay men these days that shame sexually adventurous. They chide men who are not interested in monogamy. We believe that every man can choose the relationship that is right for him. Gay men are not automatically locked into heteronormativity these days. And neither are straight people for that matter.

The video features VLAD, who also appears in the other BROTHERHOOD cut THE SECRETS I KEEP. We place him in the middle of intense and intimate scenes. Where in the DEGENERATE video, the camera was fixed and aloof, in the LOSE ME video, the viewer almost becomes a part of the action. As male bodies intertwine and thrust, VLAD is there receiving all the love and attention while giving plenty of his own.

As a display of male erotica, this is like being a part of a secret and intimate ritual where there is no shame. It is quite different than porn. There is more focus on bodies rather than cocks. Cocks tend to steal the show. While there are brief glimpses of cock, the focus is on the intimacy and brotherhood and the group of men. When men get together for the purposes of this: to have unrestrained and unrestricted access to each other, some real magic happens.

Group sex goes really smooth when there are no expectations and no strong hangups or preferences. And through this video, we get to glimpse an almost perfect scenario with perfect bodies. It is definitely in the realm of fantasy.

The song itself was written after I had a big creative loss in my life. Doors were shut, things were failing and I needed a way to get back into the body. And while it would have served me greatly to have a sexual mentor to help get me back into my body, I had to do it on my own and express myself through music. When I say “lose me” I am talking about the false identity I had created to deal with certain things in my life. I had become “someone” again and whenever I become someone, troubles are sure to follow.

I believe that most things do not matter all that much and the only thing real is the male body I inhabit. Everything else is illusory and just noise. Making the video took 40 hours of intense work and lots of failed generations to get the shots just right. After we had burned through our weekly allotment of Grok credits, we had to spend an additional $100 just to get it done. This is, by far, the most expensive video we have ever made with AI. Yet it pales in comparison to the cost it would have been if we had made it traditionally.

If we had made it traditionally, I doubt we could have found a dozen or so men to be this sexually free and open to be able to give such great performances. Men like the ones portrayed in the video are rare and that’s what makes our work with AI so special. These men do not exist but we should all aspire to be like them.
